    The NoirBird

    by
    Tuesday night we had our second live tweet-along with ds106radio. The story was Dashiell Hammett’s classic, The Maltese Falcon, produced for Lux Radio Theater in 1943. I wondered how people would react to old time radio, with its 70 year … Continue reading

    The Shadow Rhymes

    by
    There’s a writing assignment to do a Poem Made With Twilight Zone Episode Titles which comes from the ds106zone days. Since we’re doing Noir106 these days, I decided to give it a different twist and use episode titles from The Shadow. That’s … Continue reading

    Party on, Garth

    by
    Her mouth was a crimson velvet petal, Her hair was beaten from gun-metal. That couplet from The Wild Party always stuck with me. The contrast makes it striking, but the gun-metal metaphor is something else. Primarily it’s meant to describe color, … Continue reading

    Driving rain and noir

    by
    http://brianmichaelbendis.tumblr.com/post/108623696007/brianbendis-powers-volume-3-script-by-brian I found this from Brian Michael Bendis my Tumblr this morning.

    Noir-fu

    by
    I like the examples of noir that people are coming up with. Some of it is what I expected, and some are off the wall (which I also expected). Paul Schrader, in his Notes on Film Noir, describes noir as a … Continue reading

    So CogDog informed me that auto-embedding has been a feature of WordPress for a while. I just accidentally discovered this while doing my last post. I guess there’s no excuse for not embedding now. Soundcloud offers two different embed codes, … Continue reading

    The noir experiment

    by
    Today begins our latest experiment in digital storytelling, Noir106. It’s ds106 with a noir twist, but it’s more than that too. We’re running three sections as one big group. It will be fascinating to see what kind of connections, collaborations … Continue reading

    A Farewell to DS106

    by
    It has been quite a semester, has it not?  Throughout the course of the semester, we has been involved in a plethora of various media and creative thingamajigs.  This post is more of a footnote than anything substantial, as it just serves as a checklist for the multitude of “non-assignment” things from these past two […]

    Digital Identity

    by
    Jeremy HillberrydigitalID Before taking the digital studies course, I only had basic knowledge of digital identities which consisted of updating my facebook account every few months out of the year.

    Module 3 Reflection

    by
    For this last project module for DGST101, my group (and apparently many other groups!) chose to experiment with animated GIFs. To differentiate ourselves from what other groups would possibly talk about, we decided to look at how GIFs help to display reactions, education, and art, tips for making GIFs, and…
